Popis: | Irrigation therapy aimed at effective cleansing of the nasal cavity and elimination of pathogens and allergens is included in the standard combined treatment of diseases of the upper respiratory tract accompanied by various forms of rhinitis or its symptoms. Isotonic saline solutions used for irrigation therapy moisturize the nasal mucosa and maintain its normal physiological state. Hypertonic saline solutions reduce swelling of the nasal turbinates by reducing the nasal obstruction and greatly improve mucociliary clearance as compared to isotonic solutions, but may have a cilitoxic effect. The article discusses the results of using the drugs with different concentrations of salts for irrigation therapy of the nasal cavity. |
